Liu invokes the automaton as ironic departure from the machine histories of media-technologization." -Laurence A 606 $aCriticism$zEurope$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDeconstruction 606 $aLiterature$xPhilosophy 606 $aFrench literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRobots in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCriticism$xHistory 615 0$aDeconstruction. 615 0$aLiterature$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aFrench literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRobots in literature. 676 $a801/.95 700 $aLiu$b Catherine$0954575 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451722703321 996 $aCopying machines$92259594 997 $aUNINA
